That water is always clean and cold Our cats also eat on the kitchen counter With four dogs you can imagine what would happen if the cat food were on the floor I can assure you that my kitchen including the counter is I use an antclean and germ-fre- e ibacterial counter spray hot water antibacterial dish soap and paper towels every day and replace the dish towels frequently People have animals because they give love unconditionally If you are a responsible pet owner and keep your animals healthy they are no more apt to spread disease than humans — Glad She's No Friend of Mine in Calif Dear Glad: The cheering you hear in the background is from pet owners worldwide They are a fiercely dedicated lot and if you don't like their dog cat raccoon iguana snake squirrel or canary you'd better keep it to yourself Amy Grant is Christian music's most celebrated and commercially successful artist the first to achieve platinum status (with 1983's "Age to Age" album) and the first to break the 5 million mark (with 1991's "Heart in Motion") About to turn 37 she has sold 20 million albums won five Grammys and 26 Dove Awards topped the pop charts (with the ebullient "Baby Baby") had three markids sustained a riage with fellow Christian-countrartist Gary Chapman (host of the Nashville Network's "Prime Time Country") and instituted a Nashville Christmas concert tradition that for the first time this year takes to the road Given all that Grant was somewhat surprised three years ago when several people — both close friends and professional associates — told her they felt her music was not a full reflection of the person they knew and challenged her to explore her interior life to go below the surface "I thought especially on the heels of two pretty slick pop records it was fair criticism" Grant says "It wasn't like they were say' ing 'What have you done for the last 14 records?' I think that felt it people who knew me would do me good personally to dig around on the inside a little "Change World") Grant and Kirkpatrick have written together for more than a decade a partnership that begat friendship "Seeing me at close range Wayne started making some observations about me as a person about the impact of a very public life about some patterns in my life that I took for granted" Grant says pointing out that she's been in the public eye since the age of 16 The constant pressures of others' expectations and the stylistic and moral straitjackets of the genre weighed on Grant After all she is one of contemporary Christian music's most visible figures one who was criticized for making albums that crossed out of that market to the secular side "There were times that it brought me to tears" Grant says adding that she never felt she was being used "to work out somebody else's agenda I always have been given freedom by Myrrh and A&M which simultaneously release her albums in the Christian and pop markets to follow whatever muse was in me "I think it's a very common experience for a woman in her to back away and say 'I want to step back far enough from what I think is normal and value my life for what it is reassess the investments that I've made seek what's really good and what is rs singer-songwrite- self-dou- y sound" Indeed with her wavy sandy brown hair piled in a bun jeans leather jacket and acoustic guitar case Grant looked more folk minstrel than pop star when she flew in last month for a solo performance at the Capital Women's Show in Fairfax County Va "I am a somewhat unkempt person and earthy always have been" she says with a laugh after doing a quick sound check with a Joni Mitchell tune Growing up Grant points out her greatest influences were Mitchell James Taylor Carole King Dan Fogel-ber- g Which explains why almost all of the songs on her new album are sung in the first person even when they are the result of collaborations including longtime bit" The result of what Grant has called "a complete from head to toe" is "Behind the Eyes" an album that moves away from the glossy pop sound of "Heart in Motion" and "House the SALT LAKE - CINEMAS 9 RAINMAKER IN AND daughter has become increasingly heavy Her husband also is overweight and their young son already has flab and a small pot belly "Trudi" is aware of the problem and would like to do something about it The conclusion of family members is that food may have become the family entertainment and perhaps even a substitute for compatibility The obvious detriment to her health and e is of concern to all of us Can you suggest anything? — Worried Father in Illinois Dear Father: The best favor you can do for your daughter is love her and never mention her weight — just tell her how great she is and what a lovely husband and son she has When and if she gets serious about shedding the excess poundage she will do so on her own or get help from her doctor Family pressure will only create resentment and resistance self-imag- 2 9539 S 700 E BLOG SUMlnOuSIClll-iO- AM) T ' 4 4 UU' n AT: DAILY 15 7:15 10 00 1 DIGITALTHX DOLBY 16 5:45 8 00 00 3 MORTAL KOMBAT IPG13I SPECTRAL SttnfO OAKY AT 1145 2 15 4 50 7 30 10 00 KNEW TOO LITTLE (P3 1155 2 20 4 40 710 9 30 Hi MAN WHO A) THE GIRLS IB) DTS 40 2 10 4 50 7 30 10 AT SlEDtOi m Hi nj TAU IHVUl PGI ADVOCATI STUtO RAINMAKER vi ANASTASIA !
